In my 15 years in business, I've never seen anything quite like it,' said Clifton McCrory, Vice President of Sands Investment Group. 'NNNs are well-known in retail, industrial, and medical, but bringing VENU into our portfolio made selling this asset class feel completely different. It's added energy and appeal.' A New Era for NNN Real Estate The NNN Luxe FireSuite model gives investors a leasehold interest in a premier hospitality suite at one of VENU's world-class amphitheaters—complete with no exposure to property taxes, insurance, or maintenance. 'With VENU, they've got lifestyle-driven real estate and a story that resonates,' McCrory added. 'That's a rare combination and our clients recognize that.' 'As someone who owns NNN properties myself, it was a natural next step to offer interests in the Luxe FireSuites in this structure. Sands has done an incredible job. It has been an honor to work with them. We are excited about the path forward, said J.W. Roth, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of VENU.' The Luxe FireSuite: Where Luxury Meets Legacy Each Luxe FireSuite accommodates 4 to 10 guests, depending on investment level, and offers an unrivaled blend of exclusive hospitality and potential financial return. These premium assets are embedded into VENU's amphitheaters, offering investors a physical footprint in America's next generation of music experiences. As demand surges, VENU is offering multiple paths to ownership, all-cash deals, structured financing, and NNN real estate options, allowing both institutional and retail investors to participate. $5 Billion Development Pipeline With the music and experience economy booming, VENU is building the infrastructure to meet rising demand. The company is on pace for $5 billion in upscale entertainment venue development over the next 36 months, on top of the $1 billion already underway, to support its national expansion. Venu is operating venues in Gainesville, GA and Colorado Springs, CO, and actively expanding into Centennial, CO (Denver market), Broken Arrow, OK (Tulsa market), El Paso, TX, and McKinney, TX (Dallas market), plus additional markets being explored, VENU is poised for national growth. Additional markets are under review, and VENU is building not just venues, but full-scale entertainment ecosystems, designed from the ground up, aiming for profitability, repeat visitation, and lasting investor value. This demand growth follows a 250% year-over-year explosion in Luxe FireSuite sales, soaring from $22.2 million in 2023 to $77.7 million in 2024, as revealed in VENU's annual results. As the Company races toward positive EBITDA by 2026 and profitability by 2027, its income-producing Luxe FireSuite offerings, particularly under the NNN model, are emerging as a critical engine of capital and confidence. The model's strong yields and experiential real estate converges with fans that want a story, a seat, and a stake in the future of live entertainment.

If You Believe In What You're Building, Don't Wait For Permission
JW Roth, Founder & CEO of VENU. In the early days of building my business, there were plenty of reasons to pause, rethink or wait. But what kept us moving was a clear conviction: The live entertainment industry was ready for change. I know from experience that with a focused team and a willingness to take calculated risks, you can set out to build something different. If you're an entrepreneur today, here's the deal: You'll never get a green light from the world before you start. You have to give yourself permission to move. That's the real job of a founder—deciding that belief in your vision is enough to get going. So, how do you build momentum when the world hasn't caught up to your idea yet? Here's what worked for me: creating excitement and casting a vision. Build Before You Pitch Don't wait for investor validation or outside approval before you start building. We invested in infrastructure, talent and the fan experience from day one—even before the business model was fully proven. People believed in our idea because they could see it taking shape, and we leaned into the fan experience along the way. Putting fans front and center, proving that prototypes beat pitch decks every time. Use what you have—whether it's your time, tools or network to create something tangible. A live demo, early activation or pilot version of your product can open more doors than any presentation ever will. It's just as much about the jockey as it is the horse. Get to know the people behind the product, their grit, their drive, their vision, and you'll start to believe more deeply in where it's going. Business isn't a smooth track. It's full of sharp turns and unexpected hurdles. Talk to Customers, Not Just Advisors It's easy to get caught up seeking feedback from people who aren't your audience. I learned quickly that the most honest validation comes from those you're actually building for: fans, artists, partners. That's where the insights (and momentum) live. Therefore, be sure to prioritize open, honest feedback. Create real-time loops with the people who matter most, and make it clear their voice isn't just welcome, it's essential. Because trust and transparency aren't just values; they're your foundation. Move Fast, But Stay Rooted In Your 'Why' Speed matters. So does staying true to the reason you started. We expanded quickly—from a regional idea to publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange—but it's important to never stray from your mission. This kind of clarity makes it easier to navigate tough decisions as you grow and things become more complex. My main advice: Never lose momentum. Write your mission in a single sentence. If a new opportunity doesn't align with it, let it go—no matter how attractive it looks on paper. Trust That Conviction Attracts Others The real turning point wasn't media coverage or investor interest—it came when the broader live entertainment industry started to take us seriously. That shift showed up in unexpected ways: venue partnerships, award nominations, industry lists and some press. In hindsight, it wasn't hype that moved things forward—it was consistent conviction, backed by execution. That kind of belief, when shared authentically, has a way of spreading. Conviction is contagious. So, don't downplay your ambition. Speak clearly and confidently about your vision. The right people are drawn to energy, not hesitation. Looking back, I didn't build my company by asking for approval; I built it by moving forward with a disruptive purpose. And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that if you truly believe in what you're building, the only permission you need is your own. Now go give it to yourself.
